As a minimum data set (MDS) coordinator, you play a crucial role in the daily operations of post-acute facilities. You perform thorough patient assessments and provide detailed reports to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) in order to maintain a facility’s funding and the delivery of high-quality healthcare services. In addition, you coordinate patient care and may be asked to work the floor in instances of short staffing.
If you’re looking for MDS coordinator jobs, you’ll find a wealth of opportunities for both registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs). Find your next job on IntelyCare today.
MDS Coordinator Education and Skills
To become an MDS coordinator, you must be either an RN or LPN, which means you must complete an accredited nursing program and receive a passing score on the NCLEX. You need to hold an unencumbered nursing license, and, generally, employers prefer if you have experience in skilled nursing facilities.
For all MDS jobs, your documentation and assessment skills must be top-notch, and you must have detailed knowledge of Medicare/Medicaid regulations and reimbursement guidelines. To stand out from the competition, consider obtaining Resident Assessment Coordinator-Certified (RAC-CT) certification.
Even if you are an experienced healthcare professional, polish your nursing resume and cover letter for MDS jobs. Align your qualifications to the requirements listed in the job posting so a hiring manager easily sees that you’re a good fit for the position.
For example, if an employer is looking for a nurse who can train staff on coding guidelines and MDS completion, be sure your resume includes those skills. In your cover letter, explain the ways in which you’ve helped educate colleagues in past positions.
